  2. Glossary of music terminology - Wikipedia

    Dynamics in a piece should be interpreted relative to the other dynamics in the same piece. For example, pp should be executed very softly, but if ppp is found later in the piece, pp should be markedly louder than ppp. More than three p s (ppp) or three f s (fff) are uncommon. piano (p) Gently (i.e. played or sung softly) (see dynamics) piano ...

  4. Dynamics (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamics_(music)

    In music, the dynamics of a piece are the variation in loudness between notes or phrases.Dynamics are indicated by specific musical notation, often in some detail.However, dynamics markings require interpretation by the performer depending on the musical context: a specific marking may correspond to a different volume between pieces or even sections of one piece.

  6. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  7. Dynamical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_system

    The concept of a dynamical system has its origins in Newtonian mechanics.There, as in other natural sciences and engineering disciplines, the evolution rule of dynamical systems is an implicit relation that gives the state of the system for only a short time into the future.

  8. Dynamic light scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_light_scattering

    Hypothetical dynamic light scattering of two samples: Larger particles on the top and smaller particles on the bottom. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a technique in physics that can be used to determine the size distribution profile of small particles in suspension or polymers in solution. [1]

  9. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    The word dynamic was chosen by Bellman to capture the time-varying aspect of the problems, and because it sounded impressive. [12] The word programming referred to the use of the method to find an optimal program, in the sense of a military schedule for training or logistics.
